If you’re looking to add a touch of spooky fun to your Halloween decorating, our sister site CraftBits has cooked up something truly creative. Their DIY Venus Fly Trap Plant tutorial shows you how to make your very own carnivorous plant—without the maintenance or the actual bug-eating!
This project is equal parts creepy and cute. Using easy-to-find craft supplies, you’ll learn how to build a dramatic potted fly trap with wide open jaws, ready to “snap” shut on its prey. It’s the perfect mix of handmade whimsy and Halloween fright, making it a great addition to your seasonal décor.
What I especially love about this craft is its flexibility. You can go as spooky or as playful as you like—paint the traps blood-red for a gory effect, or keep them bright and cartoonish if you’re crafting with kids. Pop your plant in a decorative pot, add some moss or faux bugs, and you’ve got an instant conversation piece for your porch, party table, or haunted house display.
The instructions on CraftBits are straightforward and beginner-friendly, so you don’t need advanced crafting skills to pull this one off. It’s a fantastic weekend project that results in a show-stopping decoration you can reuse year after year.
